These same values are instilled in our young folks today, modern day parents pay their kids to take out the trash and such, when I was a teen I wanted a car, nice clothes etc. my parents did not have the means to just give it to me, or if they did they most certainly would not have. To obtains these things we had to work for them and I mean hard work, I started thinning sugar beets at 11 years old and went from that to hay hauling moving irrigation pipe and working in potato warehouses, I always had nice things, but I knew the value and the sweat that it took to get them.
